Virupaksha

"Virupaksha" is a glaring exception to the norm of supernatural thrillers being subtle and laid-back in their tone and approach. It's heavily commercialised with a love track, over-the-top fight sequences, and corny conversations, similar to other Telugu films, but what makes it stand out is that despite having a mainstream persona, the film never deviates from its premeditated objectives, which were to frighten and intimidate the audience, and trust me, it accomplishes these goals with finesse.

If you can overlook the obvious deficiencies, you will find much to admire. The writing is effective enough to evoke both fear and fascination for the narrative, which is rife with angst and anxiety that keeps you hooked and second guessing at every turn.

RATING: 3.5-4.0/5 GREAT TWISTS The movie is very gripping and make the audience hooked to the screen until the end. The main aspect in the movie was the Art director. The screenplay by sukumar has helped the movie to a great extent. Director Karthik Dandu did an excellent job though it's his second movie. Sai tej acting was good and " He made a comeback " The main highlight was samyukta menon, she got a good role and she killed it. BGM was also a major part Some scenes make u feel horrific. There's no routine "Jump scares" scenes in the movie.. That makes the movie different from other horror movies.

Definitely a good watch for the mystery movie lovers and get bored of some routine movies.

It's a Good Watch!!!

Just finished watching this movie. OMG! I did not expect Virupaksha to be that good. It turned out to be a lifetime experience.

I usually don't like horror or supernatural films, but this movie is something tough to ignore. I came across Virupaksha many times and ignored it just by thinking it would only kill my time. But then after watching it, I loved every bit of this gem.

Sai Dharam Tej did a splendid job in the lead role. I never paid attention to him before, but after watching Virupaksha, I will look forward to his upcoming work. He can lead the industry if he carefully chooses roles. Samyuktha Menon was just ok. I was quite impressed by Sunil. Sunil played a very realistic character in this film, which is pretty unusual for him. Director Karthik Varma beautifully crafted the film.

Highly recommended.

A son and mother come to their native village after long time... Soon they find some weird and mysteries happening there and he try to find the truth behind... Good story and screenplay... One time watchable movie..!

Please watch it in theatres to get the "grave experience ".

Direction-8.5/10 Cinematography-9/10 Screenplay-9/10 Story-9/10 Acting-8/10 Music-9/10 VFX-7/10

A big call out to lead actress, antagonist and other artists

Small nuisance in the "love track" scene but it all make sense when it reaches pivotal point of the story

Please don't watch the spoiler reviews as it really spoils the twists snd turns

My recent favourites are Balagam and now Virupaksha.
